New member/ head gasket failure

Pecky88 · Jan 16, 2020

Hello everyone. New to the Land Rover world. Still a ford man at heart but the appeal of 110 csw was too much. Had the old bus since August and been ok so far to date. But it’s started burning oil and drinking water like a fish! I suspect it’s the head gasket. Cba to do it myself really but I will if I have too. Has anyone paid a garage to do a head gasket and if so what am I looking at cost wise? Many thanks Ian
